I was, like, 25 when I realized "Oh my gosh, these words are spelled the same way." ''{Matt laughs}'' It just never occurs to you. It never occurred to me that caper and... anyway.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' Okay, so, look, there's all the different Homestars in the background.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Yep. This is a scene we've never seen before.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' Yeah. There's Homestar's ''{Mike says something inaudible in the background}'' That cow lamp, though, is, uh, a lamp—we had a little illustration club and one week the theme was drawing lamps. And that was one of my lamps.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' It's a good one.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' I'd like to ''make'' that lamp.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' I'd like to make that little, uh, desk—that little stand that the lamp was on.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' Yeah. There's—Homestar's wearing, uh—number one, those bunny slippers are incredible. ''{Mike laughs a little}'' And terrifying. Are they—are they—they look kind of like their lips, not their ears.<br /> <br /> ''{Mike laughs more}''<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' So, here, Strong Bad sings a song.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' Yeah.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Um...the, uhm...<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' It goes pretty well. It goes pretty well with the music he's playing.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Mmm-hm.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' Uhm, what else, Mike?<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Well, we could talk about the cinnamon on Homestar's face.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' Yes.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' And how that was a trick of ours when we used to make movies, uh, when we were younger. We never would need to be dirty or have a five o'clock shadow or whatever. We would just get cinnamon and put it on our face.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' Or potato—O'Boise's—<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' ''{laughing a little}'' Yeah.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' —in some cases. If you wanted to look like you had—<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Just crunch up some potato chips—<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' —and wet your face and stick some O'Boise's on your face.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Wow.<br /> <br /> ''{pause}''<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' Oh yeah.

Right.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' And that's why we didn't do it and then we moved it and never bothered to make the little...scrunt, whatever you call those, strands of carpet. "You know, joke kick." Hah, right?<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Yeah, that's from an email.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' I love the hands on hips The Cheat does, he never has done that and we did that. See? Now just look at him!<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' He's so sassy.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' I know. So there you go—<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' No, Homestar's going to come out.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' Oh yeah, Homestar comes out, so we get to keep talking. <br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Yes, we can keep talking this time.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' Come on, Homestar, where are—where are you at?<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' He's got a cup of coffee. I like the cup of coffee.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' Yeah, look at that steam! It's just little dots.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' It's good steam.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' It matches nothing else on our website—<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Yeah.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' Wearing his own T-shirt there.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Yeah.<br /> <br /> === Fun Facts ===<br /> *The Baltimore-based folk-rock outfit "The Jumble Caper" draws its name from this episode.

''{The Cheat grunts as many rolls of toilet paper are thrown into the air. The camera pans back to show that The Stick is covered, while Strong Bad, Strong Mad, and The Cheat stand nearby.}'' Yes! All will tremble at the crack of our eggs and the hush of our 2-ply toilet papers.<br /> <br /> ''{The King of Town walks up again.}''<br /> <br /> '''THE KING OF TOWN:''' I know how to use toilet paper. Let me try.<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' Listen... ahem... Your Highness, we're about to egg the everloving crap out of your castle.

It's a crowd-pleaser.<br /> <br /> ''{door closes}''<br /> <br /> ==== Delicious "Bag" ====<br /> '''COACH Z:''' What is that? One of them old school candies? I got some old school for you'z. ''{rapping}'' This year Halloween falls on a weekend. Me and Geto Boys are trick-or treat-en'. Robbin' little kids for bags.<br /> <br /> '''BUBS:''' Uh... he doesn't really mean we've been out robbin' little kids. ''{door begins to close}'' No, wait-- ''{slam}''<br /> <br /> ==== Zagnut ====<br /> '''BUBS:''' Aw, ZAG-nut!<br /> <br /> '''COACH Z:''' Yeah. Aw, Zagnut!<br /> <br /> '''BUBS:''' No, no. Aw, ZAAAG-nut!<br /> <br /> '''COACH Z:''' Right, right. Aww, ZAAAAG-nut!<br /> <br /> '''BOTH:''' AWWWWWW— ''{slam}''<br /> <br /> ''{You can also choose nothing by clicking anywhere on the screen, but not giving them a treat. If you do this, the door closes, and reopens with Stinkoman dressed as Speed Racer.}''<br /> <br /> '''STINKOMAN:''' Check out my new cosplay!

You know...energy bars...or power bars...or training bars?<br /> <br /> ==== Prawn ====<br /> '''STINKOMAN:''' I love prawns. Simple as that! ''{dances}''<br /> <br /> ==== Jar labeled "Akira" ====<br /> '''STINKOMAN:''' Eh. Ew. Aah! Nnn! Eh! Ew! Ahhhhh! ''{Giant tentacles and veins start coming out his body where his right arm should be.}'' That tickles.<br /> <br /> ''{cuts to Pom Pom and Homestar walking along}''<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Wow, Pom Pom. Did you know that lady? Why did she give you a hundred bucks? Alls I got was a dang old Bit o' Honey.<br /> <br /> ''{they stop at The Poopsmith, dressed up, who is sticking his shovel in and out of a pile of [[Whatsit|you-know-what]]}''<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Okay, Pom Pom. You knock this time. ''{Pom Pom does nothing}'' Fine. I'll ring the doorbell. Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding! ''{He rocks his head back and forth as if he were banging it on a door, or as if his head were a bell}'' The Poopsmith! Trick or treat! ''{The Poopsmith offers some of his dung. Pom Pom bubbles something and leaves}'' Suit yourself. More for me. Lay it on me, Poop-Stick!<br /> <br /> ''{cuts to Strong Sad in his seance}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' Credenza! Credwenzia! Crewdenz—<br /> <br /> '''MARZIPAN:''' It's been two hours and we haven't heard anything. Credenza must hate me.<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' No, no! Maybe I just need to do this some more. Credenza!!!<br /> <br /> ''{they hear a knocking sound}''<br /> <br /> '''MARZIPAN:''' What's that? That must be him.<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' Yup. That sounds like a ficus.<br /> <br /> ''{it's Homestar Runner on the porch}''<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Let me in. ''{hits the door with his head}'' Da, Da, Da. Let me in!<br /> <br /> '''MARZIPAN:''' ''{opening the door}'' Hey, you're not a dead ficus plant! <br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' You're so smart. I'm Homestar Runn—<br /> <br /> '''MARZIPAN:''' Get in here, you guys. You're gonna scare away Credenza.<br /> <br /> ''{Cut to the King of Town, eating the last of his toilet paper.}''<br /> <br /> '''THE KING OF TOWN:''' Doo! Not bad for a first course. I'm still hungry.<br /> <br /> ''{cuts back to everyone at Marzipan's house}''<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I told you I'd get a million lbs ''{pronounced LIBS}'' of candy.<br /> <br /> '''BUBS:''' That sure doesn't smell like candy.<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hey, you're right! Poopsmith? Did you give me some bum candy?<br /> <br /> '''BUBS:''' ''{snickers}'' He sure did!<br /> <br /> '''MARZIPAN:''' Any minute now. ''{electrical disturbances occur}'' Oooo!<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' Whoa! Electrical disturbances. There's definitely a powerful spirit present.<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Do you mean, like, the spirit of giving?<br /> <br /> ''{Outside, the King of Town is eating a string of candy corn lights}''<br /> <br /> '''THE KING OF TOWN:''' Oot oh. oot ooh. <br /> <br /> ''{Marzipan walks up}''<br /> <br /> '''MARZIPAN:''' You've got to be kidding me!

He gets on my nerv—''{loud banging occurs}'' What the crap!?<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' I think this is it!<br /> <br /> ''{outside, Strong Mad is punching the side of the house with a roll of toilet paper over and over}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG MAD:''' WAH! WAH! WAH! WAH!<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' ''{sitting on throne made from stacks of toilet paper rolls}'' Uhhh, that's not really the conventional way to roll a house, but, uh, whatever works!<br /> <br /> ''{From inside, we see that Strong Mad punches a hole in the side of the house.}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG MAD:''' HIGGINS!!<br /> <br /> '''MARZIPAN:''' Oh. Hi, Strong Mad. ''{mumbles}'' Stupid. This is stupid. He ate the candy corn lights.<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' Whoa. What's going on in here? You guys having one of those stupid moron parties or something?<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' OK. Everybody say it with me this time.<br /> <br /> '''ALL except STRONG BAD, HOMESTAR RUNNER AND THE POOPSMITH:''' Credenza! <br><br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' ''{simultaneously}'' This is boring!<br /> <br /> '''ALL except STRONG BAD, HOMESTAR RUNNER AND THE POOPSMITH:''' Credenza!<br><br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{simultaneously}'' Witches' brew!<br /> <br /> ''{the lights go out}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' Whoa. The lights went out.<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Whoa. Magic.<br /> <br /> '''BUBS:''' Yup. I've dealt with this before. Lights: definitely out.<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' And somebody's a-grabbin' a-my butt.<br /> <br /> ''{the lights come on and there is a ficus plant on the table}''<br /> <br /> '''MARZIPAN:''' Credenza! You're alive!<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Saints be praised! Credenza's alive!<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD AND MARZIPAN:''' Yay!<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ...and Strong Bad got to throw toilet paper at stuff!<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD, STRONG MAD AND THE CHEAT:''' Yay!<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:'''... and I got a million pounds of candy! ''{No one cheers.}'' ''{quietly, to himself}'' Yay. ''{to the group}'' ...and the goblin showed up dressed up like up a Santaman.<br /> <br /> ''{We see The Goblin, who dances. His customary music plays as he does.}''<br /> <br /> '''ALL:''' Yay!<br /> <br /> == Easter Eggs ==<br /> *When you can give Bubs and Coach Z candy, any mouse click that doesn't result in candy being given results in Stinkoman appearing, dressed as Speed Racer—see the transcript. <br /> <br /> *When Homestar asks "Did you give me some bum candy?" you can click on The Poopsmith's head to see Homsar's secret costume, Slash from Guns N Roses.<br /> :'''HOMSAR:''' I'm open for interpretations!<br /> <br /> *At the end when everyone is standing around, click the rightmost candycorn light (the one that's not lit) to see a bonus video! See "External Links" to view this video.<br /> :''{Puppet Homestar is at a tennis court dressed as John McEnroe, holding a tennis racket.}''<br /> <br /> :'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Seriously! You can't be serious! That ball was on the line! ''{taps ground with his racket}'' Come on! I don't believe this. ''{he throws his racket on the ground and storms off.}''<br /> <br /> *After the cartoon is over you can click on some people to make things happen. These people are:<br /> **'''The Poopsmith'''<br /> *:''{The Poopsmith rockets off to the right, flaming. (This is M.Bison's Psycho Crusher move)}''<br /> *:'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Cool. Flaming Poopsmith.<br /> *:''{The Poopsmith reappears from the left.}''<br /> **'''Strong Bad'''<br /> *:'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hey, Strong Bad, I really like your El Debarge costume.<br /> *:'''STRONG BAD:''' I'm not El Debarge.<br /> *:'''BUBS:''' No, no, he's Miami Sound Machine.<br /> *:'''STRONG BAD:''' No, I'm not.<br /> *:'''COACH Z:''' He's Terence Trent D'arby!<br /> *:'''STRONG BAD:''' No, I'm Carmen freakin' Mir—no, wait. I'm Ozone. From Breakin'.<br /> **'''Strong Sad'''<br /> *:'''COACH Z:''' Well, Strong Sad, this is a beautiful house you got here.<br /> *:'''STRONG SAD:''' This is not my beautiful house!<br /> *:'''COACH Z:''' Oh, and I haven't been introduced to your beautiful wife yet, neither.<br /> *:'''STRONG SAD:''' This is not my beautiful wife!<br /> **'''The Cheat'''<br /> *:'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hey, The Cheat... Um... Dress up as something different next year. Thing's creeping me out.<br /> **'''Bubs'''<br /> *:'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Say, Bubs, I really like your dirty man outfit.<br /> *:'''BUBS:''' Whatever you say, Homestar.<br /> **'''Marzipan'''<br /> *:'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hey, Marzipan, what's with your sweater costume?<br /> *:'''STRONG BAD:''' The Log Lady, huh? ''(amused)''Maybe you should get together with the Poopsmith!<br /> **'''Coach Z'''<br /> *:'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hey, Coach Z, I really like your Wesley Snakes outfit.<br /> *:'''COACH Z:''' I'm Kool Moe Dee! You know, from The Treacherous 3?<br /> *:'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh, see, I only saw Treacherous 1 and 2, so, um, I wouldn't know.<br /> <br /> == Fun Facts ==<br /> ===Explanations===<br /> *When Homestar says "I told you I'd get a million libs of candy", he is trying to pronounce the abbreviation of pounds: "lbs".<br /> *[[Wikipedia:Cosplay|Cosplay]] (as mentioned in Stinkoman's greeting) is a form of dress-up done usually at anime conventions, where people dress up as anime characters they enjoy.<br /> <br /> ===Trivia===<br /> *Bit o' Honey, [[Wikipedia:Zagnut|Zagnut]], and [[Wikipedia:Swedish fish|Swedish Fish]] are actual candies. <br /> *The sound the King of Town makes when he eats the candy corn lights is the same as when he eats the food flung at him in the game [[Revenge of the King]].<br /> *There are a total of ten easter eggs in this cartoon, even more than the Strong Bad Email [[flashback]].<br /> <br /> ===Remarks===<br /> *When Homestar says "someone is grabbing my butt," it is most likely Bubs, since he is right behind Homestar. Or his imagination.<br /> **His line may be a reference to [[1 step ahead]].<br /> *This Halloween episode carries on the tradition in which a secret scene with Homsar is activated by interacting with the Poopsmith somehow. <br /> *In every other Halloween episode (except the first, for the obvious reason that Homsar didn't exist yet), activating Homsar causes him to appear with the rest of the group at the end. This episode is the exception—whether or not you activate Homsar or Stinkoman, they do not appear at the end.<br /> *This is one of the first times that Coach Z demonstrates his ability to speak without his trademark Upper Midwestern accent.<br /> *The rings around The Cheat's right "foot" (part of his Izzy costume) may suggest that this portion of his anatomy is actually a tail.<br /> *When Homestar and Pom Pom are walking together, you can see that Homestar's wig shakes, but Pom Pom's necklace stays in place.<br /> <br /> ===Goofs===<br /> *When The Cheat and The Brothers Strong leave The Stick after their deal with the King of Town, The Cheat's torch reappears in his hand/paw.<br /> <br /> ===Inside References===<br /> *The Cheat's costume refers to the first Homestar Runner book, which was written during the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta when Mike Chapman was a light rigger for the Australian telecasts of those games. <br /> *Strong Bad references the first Halloween toon when he says "I'm Carmen freakin Miranda!" and the second Halloween toon when he says "I'm Carmen freakin Sandiego!"<br /> *The Delicious "Bag" is a reference to [[Mr. Shmallow (toon)|Mr. Shmallow]].<br /> *This toon marks the fourth time [[Witches' Brew]], an inside joke of tremendous proportions, has been mentioned.<br /> *[[Van Buren]]'s face is on the coins given to Homestar at the beginning, marking yet another relatively-famed inside joke.<br /> *Though now focused on the King of Town's castle, Strong Bad previously wanted to "egg the everloving crap" out of Marzipan's house in [[Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 7]].<br /> *Bubs' line "I remember this house from a couple of years ago.", as well as the whole scene, is an obvious reference to [[The House that Gave Sucky Treats]].<br /> *Strong Mad also had visible chest hairs in [[Marshmallow's Last Stand (toon)|Marshmallow's Last Stand]].<br /> *Stinkoman's dance makes the same sound as [[Pan Pan]]'s eating/talking sound.<br /> <br /> ===Real-World References===<br /> *The jar you give to Stinkoman is a reference to the animé film "[[Wikipedia:Akira (film)|Akira]]", where a similar thing happened to the character named Tetsuo.<br /> *[[Wikipedia:Yoo-Hoo|Yoo-Hoo]] is the name of a chocolate soft drink that is popular in America.<br /> *Coach Z's mention of Strong Sad's beautiful house and beautiful wife is a reference to the Talking Heads' song "Once in a Lifetime".<br /> *Coach Z's old school rap is the beginning of the fourth verse of the Geto Boys' "Mind Playin Tricks On Me".<br /> *The line "I'm a demon on wheels!" from Stinkoman's intro is taken from the [[Wikipedia:Speed Racer|Speed Racer]] theme song.<br /> * In the scene where Strong Sad is chanting Credenza's name by himself with Marzipan in the room, his voice sounds like it's reversed. This is a reference to certain scenes in the Twin Peaks series, where scenes were filmed with the actors speaking their lines backwards, then played in reverse. The lines ended up being "reversed" twice, making them understandable, but sounding very creepy.<br /> * The flaming maneuver the Poopsmith does when you click on him is M. Bison's Psycho Crusher attack from [[Wikipedia:Street Fighter|Street Fighter]].<br /> *When Strong Mad bashes a hole in the house he yells "Higgins!!" This is a reference to the show [[Wikipedia:Magnum, P.I.|Magnum, P.I.]] Higgins was Tom Selleck's boss in that show.<br /> *The line Homestar says to Coach Z at the end of the toon, "I really like your Wesley Snakes outfit.", is likely a reference to [[Wikipedia:Wesley Snipes|Wesley Snipes]], the actor who played the character Blade in all 3 [[Wikipedia:Blade_(movie)|Blade]] movies.<br /> *"Robble! Robble!" was the Hamburglar's catch phrase.<br /> *The photo of Marzipan's dead plant that appears in the introduction and during the seance resembles "Chuck the Plant" from various LucasArts Adventure Games.<br /> *[[Wikipedia:El DeBarge|El DeBarge]] and [[Wikipedia:Terence Trent D'Arby|Terence Trent D'Arby]] are 80's r&b artists, and [[Wikipedia:Miami Sound Machine|Miami Sound Machine]] is an 80's salsa band best known for their lead singer Gloria Estefan.<br /> <br /> == External Links ==<br /> *[[HR:ween03.html|watch "3 Times Halloween Funjob"]]<br /> *[[HR:ween03.swf|view the Flash file for "3 Times Halloween Funjob"]]<br /> **[[HR:tennis.html|watch the Easter egg tennis video]]<br /> **[[HR:tennis.swf|view the Flash file for the tennis video]]<br /> <br /> [[Category:Halloween]][[Category:Puppet Stuff]]</div>

<p>Sircoolguy: </p> <hr /> <div>[[Image:Bubs Old Pizza.png|thumb|right|220px|It sure is old!]]<br /> '''Bubs' Old Pizza''' is another fine product that [[Bubs]] sells, presumably from his [[Bubs' Concession Stand|concession stand]]. <br /> <br /> [[Homestar Runner]] is his delivery boy, bringing [[The Cheat]]'s order to him in the [[Strong Bad Email|email]] "[[privileges]]." <br /> <br /> Judging from the name, and the slogan "It's-a really old," the product is not very fresh.

You're hardly even in this video!<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' Yeah, well I woulda been the one directing it if weren't for those Super Giant guys.<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' That's not what they're called.<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' Whatever they're called, that one right there with the glasses, he started talking all these vocabulary words at me and confusin' me and the next thing I know, I was relegated to this crappy bit part. ''{Referring to the top of two heads (one is wearing glasses, likely They Might Be Giants' John Flansburgh)}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' Hey, "relegated" sounds like a vocabulary word.<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' I'll relegate your face to a...bloody pulp!<br /> <br /> '''THE CHEAT:''' ''{Coffee was being hit with a drumstick}'' {The Cheat noises}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' Oh, that part represented hitting coffee with a drumstick. Okay. <br /> <br /> [[Image:gracious.png|thumb|"Ahh! More like our 'I'll murder you in a back alley' host."]]<br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' ''{upon seeing a picture captioned "our gracious host"}'' Ahh! More like our "I'll murder you in a back alley" host.<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' Uh, so this next part ''{referring to tiny The Cheats erupting from cracks in Rondell's hands}'' is an allusion to one of my very favorite experimental films called--<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' Boring Johnny and the Get Bored Crew.<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' ''{exasperated}'' Would you quit it with the "boring" comments?<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' Look, if it weren't for that tentacle skull riding the old-timey bike, this video would have nothin'!<br /> <br /> '''THE CHEAT:''' ''{barely comprehensible}'' You don't like the video, huh?<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' Oh, yeah, the first question on that pop quiz was, "Are you all going to be in my experimental film?" ''{Referring to Pop Quiz in clip}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' ''{the tentacle skull is seen in ink on lined paper}'' Oh, look, there he is! Keep on old-timey bikin', tentacle-skull. ''{Gavin is seen}'' Hey, is that Gavin? I didn't know he was in this video. He's got, like, as much screen time as I do!<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Hey guys, is this the Super Giants video?<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' That's not what they're—<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' Yes.

And that big guy ''{referring to Strong Mad}'' looks just like Coach Z!<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' Now this part accurately represents what it feels like to watch this video. ''{Ticking clock shown}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' ''{exasperated}'' Ohhh! This next part ''{the film shows Rondell's face, then begins to shake, and the image disappears as if burning, revealing animated Rondell}'' is all about Rondell's transformation into a new man.<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I thought you said that was just an accident that happened because you loaded the film wrong.<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' ''{embarassed}'' Uhh, why don't you shut up, Homestar?<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I dunno... 'cause I guess I got a lot of stuff to say.<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' ''{when he, Strong Mad and Homestar are seen dancing}'' Check out my dance! Ooh, ah, ooh side-swipe! ''{The Cheat joins in}'' Ooh, ah, ooh side-swipe! ''{Homestar joins in}'' Ooh, ah, ooh side-swipe! Ooh, ah, ooh side-swipe!<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' Ahhh, this is the worst commentary ever!<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' That's what I've been saying this whole time!<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Yeah, me too. Worst commissary ever!<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' ''{during the portion where components of the film are seen pogoing}'' At this point reality and fantasy have collided and everybody... pogos.<br /> <br /> '''THE CHEAT:''' ''{as an animated Rondell walks up to an animated ATM}'' ''{The Cheat noises}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' ''{angry}'' What do you mean you tried to be as dumpy-accurate as possible?<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' ''{as Strong Bad is seen dancing, with the words "Real Smooth Moves" is seen above him}'' Let's talk about how "Real Smooth Moves" is like the best band name ever. The old Supreme Giants boys could take a cue from that one.<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{as a muffin on a table is seen}'' I'm gonna take a cue from that kitchen table and go get me a blueberry muffin! (Pronounced bluebree)<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' Ohh, what a disaster. I hope I still get paid.<br /> The best thing about this is that you don't have to buy any of the [[DVDS]].<br /> == Fun Facts ==<br /> <br /> === Explanations ===<br /> *This toon was made for the first single from They Might Be Giants' tenth studio album ''[http://www.tmbw.net/wiki/index.php/The_Spine The Spine]''. The song is called [http://www.tmbw.net/wiki/index.php/Experimental_Film "Experimental Film"].<br /> <br /> *The two head-tops belong to They Might Be Giants' John Flansburgh and John Linnell. The one on the left is Flansburgh, as he has black hair and wears glasses, and the one on the right is Linnell.<br /> <br /> *The answers for the "pop quiz" most likely refer to the [[Wikipedia:Cotton gin|cotton gin]], an invention that revolutionized the cotton-growing industry; [[Wikipedia:Appomattox Courthouse, Virginia|Appomattox Courthouse, Virginia]], a town famous as the location where the [[Wikipedia:American Civil War|American Civil War]] ended; and the all-time career record for home runs in [[Wikipedia:Major League Baseball|Major League Baseball]] (755), set by baseball player [[Wikipedia:Hank Aaron|Hank Aaron]]. The first question was "Are you all going to be in my experimental film?"<br /> <br /> === Trivia ===<br /> *This toon was originally posted on [[The Brothers Chaps]]' [http://www.thoraxcorp.com/ thoraxcorp.com], but was quickly taken down.<br /> *This toon was released at approximately midnight, Atlanta time, on 13 July 2004—the release date of ''The Spine''.<br /> *As of January 2005, the toon is now available [http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/com.apple.jingle.app.store.DirectAction/viewVideo?b=a&videoId=41146400 through the iTunes Music Store] (requires iTunes 4.6 or later)<br /> *The joystick Homestar is using is for an [[Wikipedia:Atari 2600|Atari 2600]].<br /> *According to [http://www.wired.com/wired/archive/12.07/play.html this Wired interview], TMBG will be making a separate video for the [[Wikipedia:MTV|MTV]] crowd. Choice quote: "I feel like if MTV and Homestar collided, the world might explode." However, the H*R music video '''did''' air on MTV.<br /> *Despite "resolving not to feel so bad about wanting to hit Homestar so much" (see Strong Sad's [[Strong Sad's Lament|Blog]]), the commentary shows the first time that Strong Sad has stood up to Homestar. As expected, Homestar doesn't take him very seriously.<br /> *The first frame of the actual song is labelled "[[Glossary#V|viderostart]]" internally (this label is used by the commentary scripts).<br /> <br /> === Remarks ===<br /> *The first line of the song is "The color of infinity inside an empty glass." Strong Sad's glass is full.<br /> <br /> *Even though Strong Sad says he can't jump in his blog, he jumps here and in [[A Jumping Jack Contest]].<br /> <br /> *After you see the clip of Strong Sad shaving, you see a close-up of The Cheat shaving.<br /> <br /> *For the shot of Strong Sad pointing the camera in the mirror at an angle to be possible, the view would have to be from a second camera filming this, or involve additional mirrors.<br /> <br /> === Goofs ===<br /> *The clock has six seconds between the three and the four.<br /> **This adds to Strong Bad's argument during the commentary that "this part accurately represents what it feels like to watch this video."<br /> *The Atari joystick button is on the upper right instead of the upper left.<br /> <br /> === Inside References ===<br /> *Gavin, the cockroach from the Easter egg in [[personal favorites]], makes a cameo appearance.<br /> <br /> *When "It's a lion!" pops up for the first time, the lion is wearing Homestar's hat.<br /> <br /> *Near the end, the crowd flips the cards to a picture of an olive on a toothpick. This was the eye from the [[Homestar Jr.]] in [[Where's The Cheat?]]<br /> <br /> *When the people in the grandstands flip the scenery cards to the mountain scene, it slightly resembles [[Main Page 2]].<br /> <br /> *"Our gracious host" bears a striking resemblance to [[Monte Negro]] in [[Malloween Commercial]].<br /> <br /> *When Homestar appears between the split screens, his lips move in such a way that he may be saying "[[Witches' Brew]]" yet again.<br /> <br /> ====They Might Be Giants References====<br /> *United States presidents are [http://www.tmbw.net/wiki/index.php/Presidents a common theme] in TMBG's work; they have no fewer than five songs about U.S. presidents, an album called ''Lincoln'', and frequently mention presidents in songs and on stage. Their [http://www.tmbg.com website] is also presidentially themed.<br /> **It should be noted, however, that while the band chose the album title ''Lincoln'' fully aware of its presidential overtones, the album is actually named after Lincoln, Massachusetts—the town where the two Johns grew up.<br /> <br /> *Skulls (i.e. the Tentacle Skull seen riding the bicycle) are another [http://www.tmbw.net/wiki/index.php/Skulls frequent TMBG theme]. In addition to being mentioned in several of their songs, it appears on the cover of their ''[http://www.tmbw.net/wiki/index.php/Back_To_Skull Back to Skull]'' EP and on the back of their ''[http://www.tmbw.net/wiki/index.php/John_Henry John Henry]'' album. The skull might also be the [http://tmbw.net/wiki/index.php/Skullivan Skullivan], as mentioned in the companion EP for ''The Spine'', ''[http://tmbw.net/wiki/index.php/The_Spine_Surfs_Alone_(EP) The Spine Surfs Alone]''.<br /> <br /> *[http://www.tmbw.net/wiki/index.php/Coffee Coffee] is yet another common theme in the work of TMBG. The earliest videos and promotional matierials from the '80s show TMBG with cups of coffee. In the film ''[http://tmbw.net/wiki/index.php/Gigantic Gigantic]'', TMBG confesses that they are insanely dependent on coffee.<br /> *In the commentary, both Strong Bad and Homestar get TMBG's name totally wrong (both "Super Giants" and "Supreme Giants" are mentioned). This is, of course, [http://tmbw.net/wiki/index.php/Monikers not the first time this has happened]. In fact, one of their early EPs included [http://tmbw.net/wiki/index.php/Untitled an answering machine message] in which two people discuss "There Must Be Giants" and "There May Be Giants" and appear to be confused about the whole experience.<br /> <br /> *The finger that comes up at one point might be a reference to the thumb on the cover of TMBG's [http://tmbw.net/wiki/index.php/Dial-A-Song_-_20_Years_Of_They_Might_Be_Giants "Dial-a-Song" album].<br /> <br /> === Real-World References ===<br /> *Strong Sad meeting the Grim Reaper through split screens is a reference to [[Wikipedia:Ingmar Bergman|Ingmar Bergman's]] ''[[IMDB:tt0050976|The Seventh Seal]]''.<br /> <br /> *Much of the imagery, and especially the scenes of Strong Sad watching film sprocket holds go by, is likely a reference to one of the first great experimental films, ''[[IMDB:tt0019760|The Man with a Camera]]'' by [[Wikipedia:Dziga Vertov|Dziga Vertov]], which has a section in which the sides of the film are exposed, and the characters look outside their own frame/world at the holes running by.<br /> <br /> *Ants (actually little The Cheats) crawling out of holes in Strong Sad's hands is a reference to [[Wikipedia:Luis Bu&ntilde;uel|Luis Bu&ntilde;uel's]] ''[[IMDB:tt0020530| Un Chien Andalou]]'' ("An Andalusian Dog") co-directed by famous surrealist painter Salvador Dal&iacute;.<br /> <br /> *Strong Sad shaving himself is a reference to [[Wikipedia:J&oslash;rgen Leth|J&oslash;rgen Leth's]] short film ''[[IMDB:tt0376821| Det perfekte menneske]]'' ("The Perfect Human").<br /> <br /> *In the commentary, Strong Bad interrupts Strong Sad with the phrase "Boring Johnny and the Get Bored Crew". This is most likely a reference to the hip hop group "[[Wikipedia:Doug E. Fresh|Doug E.

<p>Sircoolguy: </p> <hr /> <div>[[Image:strongsad.png|thumb|A round mound of gray fatness.]]<br /> Sircoolguy says, "The best toon I've ever seen with strong sad in it is [[Experimental Film]]."<br /> == Biography ==<br /> Strong Sad is the depressing character. The youngest of the Brothers Strong, he is represented as both intellectual and creative, but his genius is usually overwhelmed by his depression. Strong Sad has been seen energetic only when under the influence of [[caffeine]] or [[The Deathly Pallor|shock radio]]. When [[Strong Bad]] and Strong Sad were younger, they seemed to [[The Secrets That I Keep|get along]], but nowadays Strong Sad suffers almost constant [[Strong Bad Hurting Strong Sad|abuse]] from Strong Bad. In fact, he is often the subject of Strong Bad, [[The Cheat]], and [[Strong Mad]]'s practical jokes, and Strong Bad has quite a list of [[Nicknames#Strong Sad|nicknames]] he's used to insult Strong Sad. In turn, Strong Sad has a very low opinion of his older brother and considers him to be a clueless weirdo, which is usually true. Unfortunately (for Strong Sad), his opinions usually fall upon deaf ears. Despite all this, it is sometimes implied that Strong Sad still holds some degree of brotherly love towards Strong Bad. The rest of the cast tolerate him, but also discourage him. He has an [[Strong Sad's iPod|iPod]] and loves to play board games. His interests include listening, books, listening to books, calligraphy, poetry, safety, being alone, arts, crafts, and arts b/w crafts. He is also a poet. He seems to enjoy going to Cons, as seen in [[different town]] and [[TrogdorCon '97]]. He keeps a blog, updated sometimes, that is referred to as [[Strong Sad's Lament]]. There is a [[Strong Sad Lookalike Contest]] held annually. He has perfect handwriting and elephant-like feet, preferably called "[[Soolnds|soolnds]]". Apparently, his only friends are Marzipan, whom he seems to have a crush on, and Homsar.<br /> <br /> *'''Domicile''': [[House of the Brothers Strong]]<br /> *'''Debut''': [[Super NES]]<br /> *[[:Category:Strong Sad Filmography|Complete Filmography]]<br /> <br /> == Character Video Transcript ==<br /> ''{'''Page Title''': Poetry Slam!!}'' ''{'''Place:''' [[Strong Sad's Room]]}''<br /> <br /> ''{Open with a black screen. We can hear voices}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' I don't wanna do a characters page! <br /> <br /> '''MARZIPAN:''' Oh, come on, you can do it!<br /> <br /> ''{Marzipan takes the lens cap off, and we can see Strong Sad.}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' I'm not really comfortable talking to a camera.<br /> <br /> '''MARZIPAN:''' ''{offscreen}'' Just pretend like you're talking to me, or a wall, or a tree, or any of the other stuff that you usually talk to.<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' Ohhhhhh! My name's Strong Sad and... I have two brothers that like to pummel me every hour, on the hour. I mostly sit in my room, and... listen to music, and write, and talk to walls or trees... and wait to be pummeled... I guess I like board games more than most people. And by that I mean I like to play board games more than most people do. But by that I also mean I like board games more than I like most people. Like this one time, me and Hi-Ho Cherry-O! were playing The Game of Life, and I got a phone call from... Coach Z or somebody. And, I didn't answer it because I was having such a good time with playing this board game, against this other board game...<br /> <br /> '''MARZIPAN:''' ''{offscreen}'' Okay, I think that's enough, Strong Sad.<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD:''' And it got me thinking, you know? Two lovers... collide...<br /> <br /> '''MARZIPAN:''' ''{offscreen and clearly disturbed}'' Okay, okay, I'm turning it off now. ''{The camera stops.}''<br /> <br /> == Fun Facts ==<br /> * [[Matt Chapman]] has said that Strong Sad is the most difficult character to voice due to how delicate he sounds. If Matt strains his voice too much before recording, he actually can't do Strong Sad at all (which led to Mike substituting for Strong Sad's one word in [[cheat talk]]).<br /> * During the "filming" of Strong Sad's character page, he runs his finger up and down the border of the left camera frame when he says "talk to walls or trees", even though his wall is much further left, as can be seen in the background poster.<br /> <br /> == Also known as... ==<br /> *[[Sickly Sam]] ([[Old-Timey]])<br /> *[[Hot Tub]] ([[Dangeresque (film series)|Dangeresque]])<br /> *[[The First Decemberween]] ([[A Decemberween Pageant|Decemberween]])<br /> *[[Saddy Dumpington]]<br /> *[[The Deathly Pallor]]<br /> *[[Little Strong Sad]]<br /> *[[Anonymous]]<br /> <br /> === [[Halloween Costumes]] ===<br /> *[[Wikipedia:Mikhail Gorbachev|Gorbachev]] in [[Homestarloween Party]].<br /> *[[Wikipedia:Andy Warhol|Andy Warhol]] in [[The House That Gave Sucky Treats]].<br /> *Vyvyan (from [[Wikipedia:The Young_Ones (TV_series)|The Young Ones]]) in [[Pumpkin Carve-nival]].<br /> *[[Wikipedia:David_Byrne_%28musician%29|David Byrne]] in [[3 Times Halloween Funjob]].<br /> *[[Wikipedia:David_Bowie|David Bowie]] in [[Halloween Fairstival]].<br /> <br /> ==See Also==<br /> <br /> *[[Strong Sad Evolution]]<br /> *[[Strong Sad Other Costumes|Other Costumes]]<br /> *[[Nicknames#Strong Sad|Nicknames]]<br /> <br /> == External Links ==<br /> *[[HR:vcr_ss.html|watch Strong Sad's character video]]<br /> *[[HR:vcr_ss.swf|view the Flash file for Strong Sad's character video]]<br /> *[mailto:depressio@homestarrunner.com Email Strong Sad]<br /> *[[HR:sadjournal/index.html|See Strong Sad's Blog]]<br /> *[[HR:sadjournal/wonderyears.swf|Fond Reminiscences]]<br /> {{Characters|Strong Sad}}<br /> [[Category:Homestarmy]]</div>

Past squishings include:<br /> <br /> *[[Homsar]] in the Strong Bad email "[[homsar]]."<br /> *Homsar on his very own [[Homsar Main Page|"Legitimate Menu Page"]] when the "Games" button is selected.<br /> *Stunt double [[Strong Sad]] in [[stunt double|Dangeresque II]].<br /> <br /> == Fun Facts ==<br /> *"Lourde" means "heavy" in French.<br /> *This gag is perhaps spoofing [[Wikipedia:Monty Python's Flying Circus|Monty Python's Flying Circus]], which had a similar running gag (the weight said "16 TONS" on it, though).<br /> *The bilingual labeling on the weight is a reference to the multi-lingual labeling of items [[Wikipedia:Bilingualism_in_Canada|required]] in Canada and becoming more prevalent in the United States since the advent of [[Wikipedia:NAFTA|NAFTA]].<br /> *It was for sale at [[Strong Bad]]'s [[garage sale]] for $2, referencing email #2, where it first appeared.<br /> *A similar weight (labeled "1 TON") appears in the activity on the last page of the [[FAQ]] manual.<br /> The heavy lourde may also be found in the FAQ for the activity.<br /> [[Category: Weapons]]</div>

Guess it's been a while. ''{wipes some dust off the Compy's screen}'' Sorry about that, Compy. Need to get some... ''{starts typing "strongbad_email.exe"}'' Endust.<br /> <br /> ''{Strong Bad reads}''<br /> <br /> <blockquote class="compy email">Dear Strong Bad,<br /><br /> I was curious as to whether or not<br /><br /> Strong Badia had an official army.<br /><br /> Your Homeboy,<br /><br /> Hank Toler</blockquote><br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD''': ''{typing}'' Does Strongbadia have an army? Strongbadia needs no army, Hankatola. Me and that one big guy and that one little guy... we're a one man army. Er, a three man one-y. Three-to-one-marny? What I mean to say is, what do we need an army for when the three of us pretty much do as we please? I mean, it's not like there's anyone around to oppose us.<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': ''{suddenly appears wearing a bowl on his head and carrying a large [[Orange Tupperware|spoon]]}'' All right, maggot! Fall it out. Colonel ''{he pronounces it phonetically, i.e. "col-o-nel"}'' Homestar Runner is recruiting ''the'' most elite team of crack commandos to invade Strongbadia. Do you has what it takes to join the Homestarmy? Will you bring a sack lunch and some orange slices for me and serve your country?<br /> Will you, stupid?!<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD''': Um... no. I don't really have any interest in invading my own—<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': Ten-hut! Draft dodger, eh? We'll see if those trees you're always hugging save you when Gordon Lightfoot's creeping round your back stair. Company... Halt! Backwards... March!<br /> <br /> ''{Homestar marches backwards off screen}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' What in the—<br /> <br /> ''{Homestar sticks his head back in}''<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': Oh, and if you change your mind, or you wanna trade in that skirt you're wearing for a nice pair of camos, we're having a pep rally up at the stick in oh-fifteen minutes.<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD''': Wow. I thought I knew what ridiculous was, until this day. This definitely merits some further reconnaissance. The Cheat!<br /> <br /> '''THE CHEAT''': Emeh! ''{sounds like "I'm here"}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD''': The Cheat, I need you to find out—<br /> <br /> '''THE CHEAT''': ''{sounding a little upset}'' Omee mah meh. ''{sounds like "It's Firebert!"}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD''': Ohhh. Don't make me call you that. It's not a good commando name.<br /> <br /> '''THE CHEAT''': ''{forcefully}'' Memamo meh! ''{sounds like "Commando name!"}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD''': Ugh, all riiight. ''{reluctantly}'' Firebert. I need you to find out what the crap Homestar Runner is up to at the stick in 0–15 minutes.<br /> <br /> '''THE CHEAT''': Meh, meer! ''{sounds like "Yes, Sir!"}''<br /> <br /> ''{scene changes to The Stick}''<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': Are you sick and tired of playing second-fiddle to a two bit wrestle man and his yellow dog?<br /> <br /> '''CROWD''': YEAH!<br /> <br /> ''{faint rewind noise}''<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': Are you ready to fight alongside your Colonel ''{again pronounced phonetically}'' and give your five bucks to the Homestarmy if it comes to that?<br /> <br /> '''CROWD''': YEAH!<br /> <br /> ''{faint rewind noise}'' <br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': Do you wanna paint that fence some other cool color and put a fake beard on that tire?<br /> <br /> ''{silence}''<br /> <br /> ''{Switches to view of Homestar's audience, showing it consists of the Painting of a guy with a big knife, Strong Sad holding a tapedeck, Homsar, and a popcorn popper.}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD''': Oh, sorry. Forgot to rewind.<br /> <br /> ''{Strong Sad rewinds tape deck and presses play}''<br /> <br /> '''CROWD''': YEAH!<br /> <br /> '''HOMSAR''': DaAaAaAa! You gotta get yours. I gotta get mine.<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': All right then, maggots! Let's get out there and invade us some serious Strongbadia! Company... GO!<br /> <br /> ''{The Homestarmy marches off and The Cheat appears from behind The Stick. The view now shifts to Strongbadia where Strong Bad and Strong Mad are wondering about badminton}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD''': Yeah, I don't know. Maybe there is a goodminton.<br /> <br /> ''{The Homestarmy marches up. Homsar forgets to stop marching and walks right off the other side of the screen.}''<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': Strong Bad, so I see you decided to join the other side, eh?<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD''': What joining?? I ''am'' the other side!<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': Ten-Hut! Prepare to feel the fluoride sting of the Homestarmy! Strongbadia... will be ours!<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD''': No it won't. We're about to play some badminton. So... no invasion.<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': Oh. So I see. ''{pause}'' Retreat! Fall back men! We're in over our heads!<br /> <br /> '''STRONG SAD''': Hold the line! Hold the liiiine!<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD''': And take this stupid thing with you.<br /> <br /> ''{Strong Bad kicks the popcorn popper. A crash is heard off screen.}''<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER''': Bennedetto! Don't you die on me Bennedetto! Not on my watch! Don't you give up! ''{Tearing up}'' You never gave me the five bucks...''{taps Bennedetto with his spoon}''<br /> <br /> ''{Cut back to Strong Bad's computer}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD''': ''{Typing}'' And that, my dear Hankerin', is why Strongbadia will never need an army, though we are in dire need of a copy of the official rules of badminton. No idea what we're doing. None.<br /> <br /> ''{[[The Paper]] comes down.}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD''': ''{mumbling}'' Firebert. Terrible!<br /> <br /> == Easter Eggs ==<br /> *Near the beginning, click "[[Three-to-one Marny]]" to see a handbook containing the rules to playing 3-person marny, as written by [[Leomard Sportsinterviews|Lem Sportsinterviews]]. Click the rulebook to read it.<br /> <br /> *At the end, click on "No idea" to see a scene at [[Marzipan's House]].<br /> :''Homestar walks up to a microwave.<br /> :'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{saddened}'' Mrs. Bennedetto, my name is Colonel ''{still pronounced phonetically}'' Homestar Runner. I served with Frank in the Homestarmy at the battle of Strongbadia. I hate to give you this news... Frank was one of the finest frigging soldiers I ever met! And he still kinda owes me five bucks. So, if you could just... fork it over...''{taps microwave with his spoon}''<br /> <br /> *Also at the end, click "army" to see a [[Firebert]] action figure. It's reminiscent of the action figures in the Strong Bad Email [[action figure]], and later appears with the [[Cheat Commandos]].<br /> <br /> == Fun Facts ==<br /> ===Explanations===<br /> *When Strong Bad says it's been a while he was referring to the fact that this was the first update in a few weeks, because of Christmas vacation.<br /> <br /> ===Remarks===<br /> *It looks like Strong Bad has finished the [[Painting of a guy with a big knife]]. (In [[i love you]] he didn't paint the bottom few inches.) <br /> *The painting walks into Strongbadia by itself. Homsar carries Bennedetto and then wanders offscreen.<br /> *The Compy is rather dusty, as can be evidenced by adjusting the contrast. Interestingly, the second cut to the Compy has the contrast increased so the dust around the edges is more visible.<br /> *When Strong Bad kicks Bennedetto, he makes a shattering noise, but does not appear to be broken in any way.<br /> <br /> ===Goofs===<br /> *Although Strong Sad says that he forgot to rewind after the second "crowd cheer" at the pep rally, the rewind sound does play after the second cheer.<br /> *The text on Firebert's toy box goes over the top of the box.<br /> *When Homestar leaves Strong Bad at the computer, the contrast of the computer screen is automatically brighter. Then at the end when we cut to Strong Bad again, it is darker.<br /> <br /> ===Inside References===<br /> *The [[Soapbox|box]] Homestar is standing on at The Stick says "Twelve of Them". This is a reference to [[fingers]], in which Homestar stands on a box which bears the words "Eleven Soaps".<br /> *When Homestar asks Strong Bad "Do you has what it takes to join the Homestarmy?" he says "has" instead of "have." This is likely a reference to the [[In Search Of The Yello Dello DVD]], in which he makes the same mistake (and is criticized by Strong Sad for it in the commentary.)<br /> <br /> ===Real-World References===<br /> *Homestar says that the enemy is [[Wikipedia:Gordon Lightfoot|Gordon Lightfoot]], a Canadian singer. He says "...the trees you're always huggin' comes to save you when Gordon Lightfoot starts '''creepin' around your back stair'''". This is a lyric from one of his most famous songs, the Billboard #1 from June '74, "Sundown". It goes like this: <br /> :'''"Sundown, you'd better take care, when I find you've been creepin' 'round my back stair"'''<br /> *Homsar's phrase, "You gotta get yours, I gotta get mine" may be a reference to a lyric from the popular [[Wikipedia:Snoop Dogg|Snoop Dogg]] song, "Gin and Juice."<br /> *Bennedetto is most likely a [http://www.epinions.com/West_Bend_Hot_Air_Popcorn_Popper_01568_Small_Appliances/display_~full_specs West Bend Hot Air Popcorn Popper 01568 Popcorn Maker].<br /> *Bennedetto's name may be derrived from a character in [[Wikipedia:Alexandre Dumas, p&egrave;re|Alexander Dumas']] classic work "[[Wikipedia:The Count of Monte Cristo|The Count of Monte Cristo]]" where the adopted son of a servant's name is "Benedetto" of which a prolonged explanation of his life's history is told in that book.<br /> *Endust, a product by the [http://www.saralee-de.com/ Sara Lee/DE Corporation], is a spray designed to keep dust from settling on furniture.<br /> <br /> ===Fast Forward===<br /> *Frank Bennedetto may have been the only casualty of the Battle of Strongbadia, but he may not have died. Homestar led Mrs. Benedetto to believe that he was dead, but the appropriate term is more 'missing in action'. You see him behind the fence in the [[Strong Bad is in Jail Cartoon]], and actually back in the army in the [[Labor Dabor]] puppet thing.<br /> *Firebert later becomes a character in the [[Cheat Commandos]]. Additionally, the fact that Firebert is not a good commando name is referenced again in the toon "[[Shopping for Danger]]", when Firebert is ordered to "stay here and think of a better commando name".<br /> *The spoon Homestar holds is used again in the email [[old comics]] by Strong Mad when he eats the pasta salad in the Easter egg.<br /> <br /> == DVD Version ==<br /> *The Three-to-One-Marny Easter egg is viewable using the angle button on your DVD remote.<br /> *The DVD version features hidden creators' commentary. To access it, switch your DVD player's audio language selection while watching.<br /> **This commentary also extends into the Mrs. Bennedetto Easter egg.<br /> <br /> === Commentary Transcript ===<br /> ('''Commentary by:''' [[Mike Chapman]], [[Matt Chapman]])<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Oooh, it's been a while. How long had it been since we had done an email?<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' Maybe a month.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' 'Cause there's dust and cobwebs.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' Yeah.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' It had been— What had we done? Didn't we do some other stuff?<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' I don't know. It was after the holidays?<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' No, it was before that—<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' ''{simultaneously, overlapping}'' I think it was—<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' What number is it?<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' Ninety... three?<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Well... maybe... Anyway, for whatever reason we had, uh, not done emails for a while, so that's what the<br /> <br /> '''MIKE & MATT:''' dust<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' and<br /> <br /> '''MIKE & MATT:''' cobweb<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' is about. Um... So this is one we've talked about before. I mean, we'd come up- you had come up with the term "Homestarmy"—<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' Yeah, a ''long'' time ago<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' for a long— yeah, like a year or so ago<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' ''{overlapping}'' We were going to make a full cartoon, I think<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' yeah<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' originally, and then we decided, since we don't make those anymore, we'd just ''{laughs}'' make Strong Bad emails. There's, uh, Seicross there.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' That was a good game.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' Over ten million.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' ''{goofy voice}'' sol— sold tsill— zill-millions. ''{laughs} Till''-millions.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' in his stack— ''{mumbles}''<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' I like the carpet, the carpet underneath his, uh—<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' Yeah, that's the new and improved<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Yeah<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' shag carpeting.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' People sometimes catch onto the fact that the s— that the— when Strong Bad gets up it makes a sound against a wood floor<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' Yeah<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' which is what it ''was''; when we lived in the apartment, it had hardwood floors and we just, you know, pushed a stool across it to get that sound. And that was before we ever showed what Strong Bad<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' Right<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' was— But then, it's carpet, and so people<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' But I—<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' got a kick out of pointing that out to us.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' Yeah, I think it's great. I think we're gonna leave it that way forever and ever.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' ''{agreeing}'' Mmm-hmm.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' I think we should make it a point of, like, one time he's on a pillow, he's got the stool ''{Mike snickers}'' on a pillow and it's still like—<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' There's one time when Matt—<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' ''{imitates "get up noise"}''<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Yeah, that's, that— Which one is it, the one where you...?<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' It's the vacation one, I think.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Yeah, where Matt just makes that sound—<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' ''{overlapping}'' I just made Strong Bad go ''{"get up noise"}''<br /> <br /> ''{pause}''<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Um...<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' So, this is, uh, where Cheat Commandos comes from.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Yep. That's right. Where'd you—<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' ''{overlapping}'' So I was trying to come up with what his commando name was, so I just started writing a ton of ''words'' down, among them Fightgar, Crackotage, all what eventually became all of the, uh—<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Yeah, so we just had this list, so we made this, and then like, a couple weeks later, we saw that list of all those names, and we were like, "Well, we should just make<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' Yeah, just<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' all of them."<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' make the whole thing. Uh, "Little Albert" was one we didn't use, we thought it was too much like Reynold.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Yeah.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' There was "Gun"— uh, "Runfire". ''{Mike laughs}'' There's another one that I think we nixed.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Wasn't the, uh... the last time, that box said "Eleven of them"?<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' Maybe, I think it was. Yeah.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' I forget which one it is— So I wasn't thi—<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' ''{overlapping}'' So it— ''{resumes}'' It already rewound actually there, so that's a mistake; he had already rewound it<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Ohhh.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' so you hear it rewind, and then... But, so— Anyways, Mike just got one of those, uh—<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Popcorn poppers.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' big old popcorn poppers from Miss Cordell's class. ''{Mike snickers}'' Popcorn Party Friday.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' So yeah, maybe the pup— uh, puppet is gonna, maybe— Puppet Bennedetto, which is just a Presto air popper ''{Matt laughs}'', will maybe make an appearance sometime.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' Yeah.<br /> <br /> ''{pause}''<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' ''{chuckles}'' I love how Homsar deposits the— just kinda poops out the Bennedetto there.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' And just keeps on going.<br /> <br /> ''{pause}''<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' So, he's got this orange Tupperware bowl we had growing up on his head.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' Oh, is that why it's orange? What Tupperware bowl?<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' You don't remember the orange Tupperware stuff we had?<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' ''{conceding}'' Yeah... I remember the, like— There was the, the cas—<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' ''{overlapping}'' Well the lid has ridges on it.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' Yeah yeah yeah, and like... stars... sorta.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' ''{overlapping}'' I mean, it's kinda that one.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' Yeah. Okay.<br /> <br /> ''{pause}''<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' I don't know what "Hold the line" is originally from. It just seems like a staple ''{Mike snickers}'' of army movies. Old war movies.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' It's dusk now.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' Now it's suddenly dusk. ''{Mike snickers}''<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' 'Cause it seems to make this more dramatic.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' Makes it sadder if it's dusk.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' ''{snickers}'' I like how he taps everything with that—<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' ''{laughs}'' Yeah.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Really needs to have that all the time. I think if Homestar had arms, visible arms, it would— it would be a lot funnier all the time. Like, 'cause he could be... poking people—<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' ''{overlapping}'' ... doing something with them a lot. ''{pause}'' Is that it?<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' ''{noncommittal noise}''<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' No, just that.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Now it's done.<br /> <br /> === Easter Egg Commentary ===<br /> '''MATT:''' So there's, um... There's little Trivia Time over there.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Yeah, on the far right.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' ''{agreeing}'' Mmm-hmm.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' The cookie jar. So is this, um, Bennedetto's wife or mom?<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' I've always said it was his mom.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Yeah, me too.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' That's what I figured.<br /> <br /> '''MIKE:''' Right.<br /> <br /> '''MATT:''' Yeah. People always thought he swore there, I remember, 'cause he says, "best frigging soldier"...?<br /> <br /> == External Links ==<br /> *[[HR:sbemail93.html|watch "army"]]<br /> *[[HR:sbemail93.swf|view the Flash file for "army"]]<br /> <br /> {{Strong Bad Email}}<br /> [[Category:Compy 386 Emails]][[Category:Homestarmy Cartoons]][[Category: Emails With DVD Commentary]]<br /> If you really like this email, or the Homestarmy, go to the downloads page and download a Homestarmy wallpaper</div>
